(n). The manhole frames and oovere under items

branching joints at R and T. provided the cast iron
protecting box shown in drawing No.30138A is not
preferred. Prices are given in our list for both
pavement and roadway frames and covers in oase either
or both may be required.
(o). The lengths of cable and quantities of
jointing boxes &c. in our list are only given as a

9. Regarding sections D. J. H. and G. on plan
E.II., we observe that to reach the point marked the
route via the Government Offices and Albert Road is
followed. Te suggest for consideration whether it would
not meet requirementa, and be more economical, if a 50
pairs oable ware laid from the Post Office via Pedders
Street and D'Aguilar Street to a point near the Central
Police Station. From here to I a 25 pairs oable would
perhaps be sufficient.
In this case Section H would be
dono away with and sections D and J modified to a 100
pairs, and a 25 paire cable respectively. At point T
the 100 paire cable would be divided into a 50 pairs
cable to section E, a 35 paira cable to point U and a
25 paira cable to point Z.

on section G we suggest that it would be preferable to
run
